Rutgers University New Brunswick Early Action for Fall 2024

Ha. You are right! The letter says once you accept your offer of admission…oh, Rutgers!

The admitted student day is listed in the admitted student timeline which one of their emails linked to. Also note you have to complete placement tests within 30 days of enrolling.

On the positive side, they did extend their commit date to June 1 due to FAFSA

You don’t need to enroll/commit to attend the admitted students day.
Might be a mistake in the letter.

You need to activate your NetID to register for events, but that does not commit you to attend Rutgers.

Thank you! Yes the letter specifically says that after you accept your offer, then you can find out about accepted student day. So odd!!

I will ask my daughter to activate the NetID so she can sign up for April 13. It is not listed on the regular website of tours and she is claiming she didn’t see an email with a link to sign up. I’m just afraid the day will fill up since they only are offering one day.

Honors invitations are expected to be sent out during the week of March 1.

Yes, definitely odd (and incorrect) - because the accepted student day events are already listed as @DeeCee36 pointed out.

Unless I am missing something, that link does NOT include registration for April 13. The only admitted student days I see on that link are for Newark, Camden and Engineering. Not general New Brunswick.

No you’re not missing anything - but why April 13th specifically?

There are other New Brunswick tour dates but it looks like they are filling up fast. Hopefully Rutgers will add more tours.

I was interested in April 13 specifically since that is the open house for admitted students according to this page

On the page with the tours, none of those say they are for New Brunswick accepted students (just engineering specific ones).

Ok, got it. April 13th is the open house for admitted students, and includes a tour. It appears they haven’t scheduled this yet.

Congratulations :tada:! May I know your son’s gpa and SAT score

My son received invitation for Engineering Honors Academy with Dean’s scholarship award. Does that mean that he is not accepted in the honors college? I have read the FAQs on differences between the two. Can anyone provide additional insights into EHA?
